Okay, I have very bad panic attacks and if you've read my questions before i'm sure you know this. Anyway, I can only really go places with people I trust. I am getting a little better, but not enough. Basically, i've been out of school since September from my psychiatrists orders and now the school wants me to start trying to go back to some classes. I know I cannot do this. It is my biggest phobia, because it's where they happened. I know for a fact I'm not ready, and I seriously just want to finish the year being tutored. especially because i'm already a senior. I'm so afraid they will make me go back if i can't... i'd probably have to drop out before I'd go back that's how afraid i am..my tutor keeps telling me "you need to get back there.. it shouldn't be hard now" what does she know? it makes me angry that she can talk to me that way especially when it's not her business. i'm just wondering if I'll be able to finish school at home if i have to.. any similar experiences or advice?

What does your psychiatrist say? Usually in this sort of situation there is a plan in place to gradually get you accustomed to school again, a plan designed by a psychiatrist or psychologist. It would involve having you maybe go just to the school parking lot for a few minutes for the first couple of days, having someone accompany you, on-going therapy, and so on. I agree that it would be in your best interests to get back to school, but there has to be a reasonable and workable plan.

Are you taking medication for these panic attacks? If not, you need to be. There are some really good medications out there for it-they balance the chemicals in your brain that cause panic attacks. Also, you should see a psychologist or psychiatrist to talk about your fears. This is something that you need to face now because it does not go away without help. You don't want to spend the rest of your life isolated from the world. How will you ever get a job, have a family, live a normal life? With the help that is available, there is no reason to be a prisoner in your own home. I don't think your counselor knows enough about panic attacks to understand how terrifying they are. I suffered with them for many years, but with professional counseling and medication, I now live a normal life. There are also many websites out there to help you-just type in panic attacks on any search engine. Hang in there-there are so many options out there to help you deal with them! I wish you the best!

Smegma is composed of stale body oils, shed skin cells, miscellaneous dirt and dust, stale urine and stale semen. Because of its oily base it is not possible to fully wash it away with water alone. It is essential that you use some soap - although this should be a mild one and must be washed off fully before replacing your foreskin. Your glans is very sensitive to the touch because it has never been exposed to regular contact - mainly due to your phimosis. Initially you will just have to grin and bear it as you clean yourself. Over time your glans and your brain will get used to this sort of non-sexual contact and 'tune it out' just as you are not particularly aware of the contact of clothes with other parts of your body. If you cannot fully, freely and painlessly retract your foreskin so as to see the whole glans and the coronal sulcus (groove) behind it then you cannot clean yourself properly and will also have less than satisfactory sex. Phimosis (tight, unretractable foreskin) cannot be cured by stretching as this causes minute tears in the thin inner layer at the tip. These tears heal to scar tissue which is even less elastic than the tight surrounding skin. Thus the condition is made worse not better. The only sure and permanent cure for phimosis is circumcision. This is a simple external operation which can be performed quickly and safely under local anaesthetic in the doctor's office.

Yes , it happens to a lot of people babe. Just breath count to 4 hold your breath for 7 second get the air out by your mouth r counting 8 second , then start again that for 4 times. that will help you A LOT. Try to walk everyday at least 35 mn. Exercise will reduce your phobias. And babe life is short DO NOT take life to seriously. Try to relax

It is in no way up to the school it is up to your doctor. That would be like the school saying you had sufficient time to recover from open heart surgery and need to come back. Only your doctor and your family can make that decision. As long as you are under a doctor's care then the school has no say-so in the matter. If they try to interfere they could be sued..good luck

Talk to your counselor and you tutor about your feelings. I think they probably feel it would be good for you to try what you've learned in therapy and try to finish off your senior year in school. Sometimes we have to get out of our comfort zone to prove to ourselves that we can do the thing we think we cannot do. Good Luck

Are you seeing a therapist for this?? One might really really help.. I don´t think they could force you to go back to school just like this, you know?? What would happen??? First day there and you´d freak out again! It´s not worthy thr trouble.. Make it very clear to them all that you are not ready. And if they force you, it will happen again.
It´s not human forcing soemoen in a situation like this.. What about talking to your parents?? You don´t think they might be able to help??
Good luck, sweetie.. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers!
